The West Division matchup between Louisiana Tech and North Texas has also changed dates. The Bulldogs will visit the Mean Green on Thursday, September 11 in Denton, Texas. The matchup will be the first league contest in Conference USA this season.

The annual Shula Bowl meeting between FIU and Florida Atlantic has been moved up two days and will now be played on Thursday, October 2, in Miami.

The final date change involves the Southern Miss at UTSA contest. The first meeting between these inter-divisional foes has been moved two days earlier and will now take place on Thursday, November 13, in San Antonio.

Additional date changes to accommodate television remain a possibility, and details of such games will be announced as soon as possible.
